2nd grade iPads – Debbie is working on getting these ready, hopefully before Friday.  Fingers crossed!  Thank you, Debbie for making it happen.

Jon Craft just shared a document to go home with parents when they get their iPads.  This gives families a quick snapshot of the essential apps and resources needed.

Class Lists – these are available to you in synergy.  Teachers assignments will go live in ParentVUE any minute now.

Materials Distribution – latest document with our guidelines for distributing materials, including home visits.

My understanding is both 1st grade and 2/3 grades will be distributing materials on Friday 9/11.  I am fairly certain you all told me times, but I need a reminder on times and locations around the school grounds.

• 11:00-1:00
• Jennifer – Room 1 Window (on Newport)

• 1:00-3:00

Learning Kits –  ELA kits are in the hall just outside the office – please feel free to get these ready to go for your teams (if you have not already done so).  Math kits are supposed to be here by the 21st.

One Teacher’s Trash is another Teacher’s Treasure –  Tables are full of treasures –  Anything left over after Friday 9/11 will be discarded.  Please be sure to wash your hands often during this entire process.
